It’s always fun to find new ways to make steak, and it’s even more fun when it involved a bottle of Jack Daniel’s Whiskey. I found this recipe (where else?) in the Pioneer Woman’s Cookbook. Since she has to make food for cowboys, she tends to cook a lot of steak and potatoes. This recipeContinue reading “Steak with Jack”

The Many Faces of Kaylee
Many of you know that we have 5 furbabies at our home that we love and adore, and they each have their own unique personalities. From territorial and hyper Camelot, to laid back and cross-eyed Lazarus, each of our babies brings something different to our household. The same can be said about our female St.Continue reading “The Many Faces of Kaylee”
Juice, Anyone?
We bought a juicer! If you haven’t watched the movie Fat, Sick, and Nearly Dead, I highly recommend that you watch it. It’s very fascinating! Basically this Australian dude comes to America to do a 60-day fast, and drink nothing but fresh juice the entire time. Along the way he meets a few people whoContinue reading “Juice, Anyone?”
Smokey House Rehab (Part 5)
I know it’s been a couple months since I posted an update on the Smokey House Rehab, but that’s mainly because there’s been nothing to update you about. The rehab has been on the back burner because of all the wedding madness, and we’ve finally gotten back into it. The last time we attempted toContinue reading “Smokey House Rehab (Part 5)”

Twin Blankets for Twin Girls
One of my best friends gave birth to twin baby girls last week, and I couldn’t be more thrilled! Evelyn Marie and Brooke Renee were born on August 15th at 5:52 and 5:54pm, and both were 5 lbs, 10 oz. As some of you know, Renee was supposed to be in my wedding this pastContinue reading “Twin Blankets for Twin Girls”
Our Honeymoon: Bermuda
On our 9-day honeymoon cruise we stopped in 3 ports — Bermuda, St. Thomas, and Grand Turk. We were also supposed to stop in San Juan, Puerto Rico, but due to a cyclone in the forecast, we had to skip that port. I was pretty bummed since we were supposed to go zip lining there,Continue reading “Our Honeymoon: Bermuda”
